Christmas in Texas

December, a month to remember! A Rose Bowl disappointment for the Oregon Ducks and families gathering. But Oregon and Texas do have long lasting memories of both losing their Bowl games on National Television! We all know that the Christmas Season is happy for most folks but sad for many others. We all remember those unusual Christmases over the years but this year had many enjoyable moments. Roly & Candy had their clan gather in Corsicana, Texas. The usual climate is mild even in the winter even though I remember ice storms in December. But the winter blast waited until January for Texas where they have been shivering with 20 degrees! and in Oregon it's Spring, almost! We all missed the Texas kids and grands and greats! And finally received these memories to enjoy with them. Now headlong into another year, we are all thankful for life and the opportunity to grow some more gratitude to keep us warm!

Thanks to Candy, Roly, Ashley, Zack, Holly, Joe, Blake and Tyler! We all missed you!
